We are almost there, only one more block to go after this one. Ah, the mystery of the cubes! This penultimate quilt pattern was designed by Caroline for the Doctor Who QAL. The background fabric you see here came from a fat quarter I had lying around for ages. I bought that per my husband’s request when I first started quilting almost two years ago. I had no idea what to do with it and finally the wait has paid off!

I have always found the mystery surrounding the Chameleon Arch in Doctor Who very intriguing. The stories involving the fob watches are fantastic, both of the Doctor and the Master! So we had to include the fob watch in our Doctor Who quilt-along.

Because of the circular shape of the watch, there is a lot of piecing on two of the sections. Other than that, this is actually a fairly easy pattern.

I haven’t decided yet if I want to keep the watch face as though energy is emitting from it as I have it now, or embroider the watch face on it. I would like to see what you end up doing.

You will need these fabrics to make this block –

1 fat quarter for the background

3 shades of grey for the body of the watch

white or swirly yellow for the watch face

Don’t forget to upload your block pictures on the Doctor.Who.Along Flickr Group! I can’t believe the group now has over 300 members!! So exciting!!

Lastly, I wanted to thank you all for the well wishes on the move. I really loved reading every single comment and they made me feel so much more confident for this next step. The winner of the Moving Giveaway is Susie! I will mail the books to you before I move. The next blog post will be from our new place in Napa, California.

Wasn’t it fun to see the eleventh doctor for the first time with little Amelia Pond? She wasn’t afraid of anything but the crack in her wall really scared her. Then the story about the crack in the wall started unfolding!! Caroline made this perfect pattern of the crack in the wall for our Doctor Who Along!

“Daleks, aim for the eyestalk. Sontarans, back of the neck. Vashta Nerada, run. Just run.”

We had River Song’s Diary as the last block and this week we have the reason for the Doctor and River Song’s encounter. I find the concept of Vashta Nerada intriguing and terrifying at the same time – specially considering I have tons of books all over my place, in every single room!
